Link Between Diet and Cancer Risk Uncovered in New Study

Consuming certain foods and drinks, such as alcohol and white bread, may increase the risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), according to a study published in the journal Nutrients. Researchers analyzed 139 dietary factors and found that alcohol and white bread were associated with an increased risk of CRC, while fiber, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese, and carbohydrate intake were associated with a lower risk. The study highlights the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle and dietary habits to mitigate the risk of cancer, although further research is needed to validate these findings in diverse populations.

The Link Between Diet and Type 2 Diabetes: New Research Findings.

Poor diets account for 70% of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes cases worldwide, with excess wheat intake, refined rice, and processed meat consumption being the top contributors. Inadequate whole-grain consumption also plays a significant role. The study highlights the need for nutritional priorities to address this global epidemic and reduce the devastating burdens of diabetes. The burden of type 2 diabetes was generally larger among urban versus rural residents and higher versus lower educated individuals, except in high-income countries, Central and Eastern Europe, and Central Asia, where burdens were larger in rural residents and in lower educated individuals.
